B4R Code Snippet Get the time from a timserver (the easy way)

Note: The ESP must be connected to the internet (e.g. WiFi)

Sub GetTime
    RunNative("GetTime", Null)
End Sub

#if c

#include "time.h"
void GetTime (B4R::Object* o) {

    const char* ntpServer = "pool.ntp.org";
    const long  gmtOffset_sec = 3600;
    const int   daylightOffset_sec = 3600;

    configTime(gmtOffset_sec, daylightOffset_sec, ntpServer);

    struct tm timeinfo;
      if(!getLocalTime(&timeinfo)){
        Serial.println("Failed to obtain time");
        
      }
    else
    {
          Serial.println(&timeinfo, "%A, %B %d %Y %H:%M:%S");
    }
 
}

#End If

Question: How do we get

Serial.println(&timeinfo, "%A, %B %d %Y %H:%M:%S");

to a variable? I tried with sprintf but I'm a total beginner in C.
